I... survived reading "A Dream of Ice". Oh gosh, this was kind of annoying to read. But I wanted to know the end so I continued reading until the end. Reached there, and I'm still feeling annoyed. 

Hopefully the next book I'll pick out of the jar will be better (or at least be less annoying)...

...I got "Silence" by Shusaku Endo. 

Historical fiction.
Will it be heavy? Will it be hard to read?

Am I going to be okay this week? *sigh*
